About this Event

EN: Derived from the artificial intelligence "Cyro" featured in the science fiction short story "Babel," is an interactive media art installation capable of translating a viewer's brain activity data into real-time visuals and audio. Siro can be considered an early prototype of "Cyro," designed to study its owners' internal language and act on their behalf. Additionally, Siro serves as an offline entry point to the online collaborative fiction project, "Babel Universe."

Since its debut in 2021, Siro has been shown in well-known galleries and museums such as the Ming Contemporary Art Museum, Westbund Art Expo, Columbia Circle, Chongqing Contemporary Art Gallery, and got onto one of the longest-running Chinese TV programs called "TianTianXiangShang". We have hosted more than 15k audiences before and now we're in Montréal!

FR: Dérivée de l'intelligence artificielle « Cyro » présentée dans le récit de science-fiction « Babel », Siro est une installation d'art médiatique interactive capable de traduire les données d'activité cérébrale d'un·e spectateur·trice vers les visuels et audio en temps réel. Siro peut être considéré comme un prototype préliminaire de « Cyro », conçu pour étudier le langage interne de ses propriétaires et agir en leurs noms. De plus, Siro sert de point d'entrée hors ligne au projet de fiction collaborative en ligne « Babel Universe ».
